Tianjing She (Nanjing Agricultural University) and colleagues published a new paper on phage-mediated gene transfer in Salmonella, showing horizontal transfer of virulence genes in Salmonella enterica with regulatory feedback from the host.

Ecole Normale Supérieure, Paris, France, is hiring a postdoc to model the ecological and evolutionary impacts of horizontal gene transfer and phage infections in microbial communities, integrating biophysics, ecology, and statistical physic

Rafael Gonzalez-Serrano (Universidad Miguel Hernández, Spain) and colleagues have discovered that distantly related Alteromonas mediterranea phages shares its host recognition module with phages from distantly related families, shedding lig

Hello, I’m working on my bachelor’s thesis and I need specific information about phage and bacterial genetics. Do you know or could you help me find sources, if it is possible for bacteria to acquire and use phage genes for their own benefi

Europe's EvoInHi (Evolution in the Gut in Health and Disease) project is hiring a postdoc to quantify the tempo and mode of evolution by mutation and horizontal gene transfer, emphasizing phage driven horizontal gene transfer and phage bact

Postdoc to join APC Microbiome to investigate the role of phages in horizontal gene transfer in the human gut microbiome.

PhD position to study horizontal gene transfer (HGT) and viral vectors at the University of York, England

Jagiellonian University (Poland) is recruiting a PhD student to work on a project related to quantifying evolutionary dynamics of tails in phages infecting bacteria of Klebsiella pneumoniae and the role of horizontal gene transfer in the ev

Dr. Heather Hendrickson Does anyone have a robust and reliable method that they like for auto detecting HGT in completely sequence genomes? I was playing with HGTecor last week but it seems to be broken. Help? —@DrHHNZ | Tweet thread
